Just the finishing off jobs today so Skip got started, cleaning the guest shower and toilet, awaiting Crews' approval! Then......disaster!! Just as he was finishing the cleaning he discovered that the toilet no longer flushed! Although we have two toilets the one for the main cabin is in the cabin itself, making night time trips very difficult!! So we have a dilemma.......Andy and Sally were arriving around 1 p.m.
Skip went to the Capitaine to ask her to contact a plumber for us which she finally managed to do but not until after 4 p.m. So we waited.......and waited. Meanwhile, deciding that the toilet would not be fixed today a room in town was booked for Andy and Sally. At 6.30 Skip went over to the Capitainerie and reported the 'no show' - our Capitaine was 'desolee'!
When the driver came to pick us up for dinner at 7.30 he asked about the plumber and had a conversation with our Capitaine. He said he would make sure we had a plumber in the morning.....progress! We managed to have a really excellent dinner, this time in the restaurant proper and afterwards Andy and Sally walked the short distance to their hotel and we got our lift back to the port.
On and off weather today - we managed to sit on deck for most of the afternoon and not too much rain......thank goodness for small mercies!!
We watched TV as Andy had brought us a new digibox for us from England which we had posted to his address. It caused a little consternation at Customs when they were stopped on the way over!
Both tired with the emotions and disappointment of the day, so not too late to bed!
